WISP MonitorQuestions? - ripras, - yeagerd may be able to help you.
OverviewThe WISP Monitor is a board consisting of a microcontroller that can monitor all pins (except the Voltage Regulator pin) on the WISP 4.1. This is done by simply affixing the WISP to the Monitor board via the header pins. The pin mapping is such that the USCI port of the WISP is connected to the USI port of the Monitor microcontroller. Thus, the board can be used simply as a Monitor or as an active participant in WISP functionality. The microcontroller is also connected to a UART-USB chip which enables information transmission and reception to and from the PC. The Monitor does not affect WISP functionality in any way unless the user determines to do so.
There have been no releases of the WISP Monitor.
UsageThe WISP Monitor can detect two fundamental signals from the WISP:
1. IO Activity
What are we monitoring?
The WISP monitor is really good at monitoring IO activity on the WISP MSP430. By using IO interrupts on the Monitor's MSP430 to detect WISP IO activity, monitoring these signals is relatively painless.
Why is this useful?
IO activity can be used to detect the WISP's firmware state (either by sniffing existing IO activity, or by adding intentional signals to help the monitor detect the WISP's state). Immediately we can track the WISP state progression and answer questions such as "How often does the WISP successfully process a Query command?" or "How long does the communication typically take?"
Moving one step futher, by mapping WISP states to the power consumption of each state, we can monitor the WISP's power consumption in real time. Or, by keeping track of the time spent in each state, we can determine the energy consumed in each state (energy = power * time).
How can we measure the power consumption of each state?
To measure the power consumption of a WISP state, the WISP is loaded with firmware which loops continually in the state to be measured. The WISP is powered via a power supply (no RFID reader or debugger) and a multimeter is placed in series to measure current flowing from the power supply to the WISP. Note that the MSP430 is the dominate power consumer for most states (sensor current can be found on a data sheet or measured in the same way) and thus the WISP "states" boil down to the MSP430 clock frequency in each state. Do not use the MSP430 sleep state current; measure it. The regulator, supervisor, etc. also consume similar amounts of current (~1uA range).
2. Unregulated Supply Voltage
What are we monitoring?
The monitor can continually poll to take an analog measurement of the WISP's unregulated supply voltage. Alternatively, measurements can be triggered based on the WISP state.
Why is this useful?
WISP stores energy in the form of voltage on the 10uF storage capacitor. This allows WISP to power the microcontroller from stored energy in the capacitor when the instantaneous received power from the RFID reader is less than the power required by the microcontroller. This is explained in the WISP design journal paper and also on the Managing Power page.
This information allows the designer to answer questions such as "How much energy did the WISP have stored up before it started taking a sensor measurement?" or "Did the WISP complete the sensor measurement before running out of energy (Vdd < 1.8V)?" or "How much energy are we spending on various communication states?"
How do I make sense of the Monitor schematic? How do I interpret the ADC reading?
The WISP unregulated voltage spans 0V to 5.5V. The WISP Monitor supply voltage is 1.8V to provide IO voltage compatibility with the WISP. Thus, we must scale down the WISP unregulated voltage before it reaches the Monitor ADC (which has a reference voltage of vdd = 1.8V). The Monitor schematic has a voltage divider to scale the unregulated voltage down by a factor of 3. There is also a buffer to either drive the ADC or provide a high input impedance so the monitor does not draw current from the WISP and thus affect the measurement. The schematic provides an option to divide and then buffer OR buffer and then divide; use the latter option but leave the 1k ohm series input resistor in place to prevent high current into the overvoltage protection diodes in the opamp in case excessive voltage is applied. That is, don't stuff R2 but leave everything else as is.
The ADC output = 1024 * (Vunreg / 3) / 1.8V
The unregulated voltage, Vunreg = 3 * 1.8V * ADC / 1024
Features- MSP430F2132 microcontroller
- FTDI F232R UART-USB chip
- USB receptacle
- Header pins which affix directly to the WISP 4.1 header pins
- Does not affect WISP functionality unless specified by the user through firmware code
- MCU - PC communication
- MCU - WISP communication through USCI/USI modules
HardwareMonitor v1.0 Schematic
Monitor v1.0 PCB Layout
Software(In development)
DIY Monitor PCBYou can make PCB's through PCB Express or Express PCB for around $100. The PCB is really simple, an example schematic and layout are shown above. If the gerbers become available, they will be posted here.
Homebrew MonitorYou'll need one of these:
FTDI RS232 to USB chip:
And one of these:
(or you could probably just use a WISP, which includes the requisite 1.8V regulator :)
The FTDI chip can power the MSP430 dev board using it's 3.3V rail. If you do this, you'll need level shifters to sense the WISP voltages :( However, the ADC can then measure a good chunk of the unregulated voltage with no analog level divide by 3 (as described above).
What we want to do is unsolder the IO jumper:
And connect the IO voltage (pin 4 on the FTDI chip, the thru hole is labeled on the back of the sparkfun board) to our 1.8V supply (the same one that power's the monitor mcu). A lazy way to get a 1.8V supply is to run on the monitor on the FET debugger (not the USB debugger), or to run from a power supply or a breadboarded regulator. Again, we don't care about power consumption for the monitor, so just get it working :) If you can find a battery of the appropriate voltage, that would work too (but I'm not sure how long it will run for). If you use a WISP for the monitor MCU, you can use the FTDI 3.3V or 5V rail into the unregulated supply, and then take the 1.8V supply on the WISP for the regulated voltage for the IO. You can then also use the voltage sensor circuit on the WISP to sense the device under test (DUT) WISP's unregulated supply. Just be careful when you are wiring things up not to accidentally power the DUT WISP using the monitor.
We'll need to solder RX, TX, and GND from the FTDI board to the MSP430 board. I always get RX and TX backwards the first time, so either study the schematic link (above) carefully, or leave some extra wire to resolder if you get it wrong. Again, if you can use the 3.3V supply on the FTDI board to power the monitor CPU if you have a regulator.
Download the TI sample code to do RS232 transmission and blast away.
Known Bugs- Cap Charge pin connects to Monitor pin directly. Add resistor to prevent direct connection.

History of our school
The school is called "Réalt na Maidine". The present school building was built in 1981 amalgamating the two old schools of Knocknarea and Kilmacowen. There was no extension at the time and the school had six classrooms, a SEN/ staff room, a hall and a kitchen. There were 153 pupils.
Mr. Brendan Kelly was the first principal of the school and was principal up until December, 2006, when he retired. Our new extension was built in 2001 and formally opened by the Bishop of Elphin, Reverend Christopher Jones. Today the school holds 183 pupils, has 7 classrooms and 2 SEN rooms, a library, 2 offices, a staff room and P.E hall.
It may be very surprising, but the parish of Ransboro got it's name from a bird. Before the parish got its name, it was said that every Sunday a wren would sit on the altar after Mass. The parish was then called Wrens-Burrow. Now we call our lovely parish Ransboro.

my mom died and left me as the beneficiary on her ira and the funny thing is, is that she left me out of her will and gave everything i was going to get to my sons. now i get the money from the iras, i know that, but do those ira's still have to go though the lawyer or can i just take them and cash them in?

you can take them right away- no probate necessary (and you don't need a lawyer or court approval)
tonalc2 Said on May 5th, 2010 at 4:06 pm:
I would speak to a tax specialist/tax attorney/financial advisor as to the best way to deal with the IRAs. There could be significant tax consequences of just cashing them in.
Who is John Galt? Said on May 5th, 2010 at 4:40 pm:
You can cash them. I would suggest consulting with a tax attorney only because there are tax implications based upon how you are taking the money.
There may be tax penalties and fines that need to be payed unless you plan to roll that money into a retirement plan that you own.

The U.S. Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) recently released a survey entitled "National Survey of Speeding Attitudes and Behavior." A copy of the PDF document can be downloaded from the NHTSA website by clicking here. This survey offers a sense of the public's attitude towards speeding across the nation. Speeding is defined as going over the posted speed limit or driving too fast for conditions and it is a common factor in traffic crashes. Maine, along with other New England states, was one of the states with the lowest number of "non-speeders."
To compile the data, NHTSA held 6144 phone interviews among drivers 16 and up. 1137 interviews were conducted with people that use mostly their cell phone, whereas 4507 interviews were held on landlines. There was a slightly larger percentage of interviews conducted with drivers ages 16-34 years old because this group was overrepresented in crashes.
The survey showed that drivers have a wide range of perspectives. The report is divided between a discussion of normative attitudes (what people think should be done) and personal attitudes (what they actually do in their real lives).
Normative attitudes were in line with what the law requires. About 4 out of 5 drivers believed that driving near the speed limit made it easier to avoid dangerous situations and reduced the likelihood of a crash. About 50% of drivers that were surveyed believed that speeding was a problem. An overwhelming majority, 91 percent, agreed with the statement that "everyone should obey the speed limits because it's the law."
Almost half of all drivers, 48 percent, said that it was very important that something be done to reduce speeding on U.S. roads. 16% believed that driving over the speed limit isn't dangerous if you are skilled. But 79% of survey respondents understood that driving around the speed limit helped to avoid a crash.
Personal attitudes were a different story. What a significant percentage of people do, in spite of knowing what they should actually be doing, varied both from the law and what is safest in terms of avoiding injury. 1/5th admitted that they sped. Males more often made this admission than females. Many admitted they enjoy driving fast and that they speed without thinking about it. Many drivers (35%) stated that they were speeders because they were running late.
All speeders tended to pass other cars, and 57% kept up with faster traffic. This was in contrast to 43% of non-speeders who stated that other cars tended to pass them and that they tended to stay with slower traffic.
The age group with the least experience — those 16-20 years in age — crash as a result of speeding the most. The NHTSA has targeted this group with a "5 to Drive" campaign that challenges parents to discuss 5 critical driving practices with teen drivers that can help prevent crashes. These are: not speeding, not using a cell phone or texting while driving, not carrying extra passengers, not drinking and driving, and not riding without a seatbelt.
A casual approach to speeding — that is, speeding in spite of the knowledge that it is a problem — is dangerous. One-third of traffic fatalities (about 10,000 per year) are the result of speeding. One in ten drivers in the survey stated that they had been in a speeding-related crash. From 2002-2011, speeding contributed to about one-third of all crashes ending in death (or about 123,804 deaths).

"Money talks." "Put your money where your mouth is." "Money does not motivate." "Pay for performance." "Financial incentives." she became too concerned about money." As these phrases suggest, money plays a complex role in employee motivation.
More than 20 years ago, a researcher on employee motivation coined the phrase, "Money does not motivate."
However, numerous monetary incentive plans have proved that phrase to be wrong.
Perhaps the researcher would have been more accurate to say, "Under some conditions, money does not seem to motivate employees to greater performance."
Money can have positive or negative effects on performance because of the following roles of money.
* Need fulfillment. Employees, for the most part, need money to buy the necessities of life. In fact, many workers dream of obtaining large sums of money so they can quit their jobs. Thus, money motivates these people to work so they can survive.

Elementary, season 5
Courtesy of CBS Television
Release Date: August 29, 2017
When I was in my early teens, I tore through a couple of Sherlock Holmes books. Now, I'm talking about the ORIGINAL books, such as "The Hound of the Baskervilles" and "A Study in Scarlet"…not any modernized versions of the character. But for as much as I greatly enjoyed those two, the other books written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle fell flat for me. Thankfully, this did not dissipate my fondness for Holmes, but it did make me more critical of everything pertaining to him.
As I aged, I began to branch out and read other authors' takes on the legendary sleuth. Some were spot on, while others missed the mark completely. Just recently (within the past couple of years), I added movie adaptations and television shows to the mix, such as the Robert Downy Jr. travesties and SHERLOCK, starring Benedict Cumberbatch, as well as ELEMENTARY.
I initially thought I'd hate ELEMENTARY because it is such a drastic departure from the original material…but I'm happy to report I enjoy it immensely. Granted, I had to change my mindset, but once I did, I found the gem hidden amongst the stones. This show will probably not be for everyone, but it's a lot of fun and greatly entertaining.
If you are not familiar with ELEMENTARY, here is the show's plot synopsis courtesy of CBS Television:
Sherlock Holmes (Jonny Lee Miller) is a recovering addict who meets Joan Watson (Lucy Lui) as his 'sober companion'. Initially their relationship is strictly professional, and somewhat frosty, but they grow to understand and work with one another, eventually forming a friendship and partnership. Together they assist Captain Gregson and Detective Bell of the NYPD, where Holmes' observational abilities and deductive talent unravel a series of complicated cases.
Alongside his police work, Sherlock struggles with a past he left behind in London involving an ex-girlfriend Irene Adler, a 'nemesis' in Moriarty, and an absent father.
To enjoy ELEMENTARY, I didn't lower my standards or anything crude like that. Instead, I came at it like an outsider, as if I knew nothing about the Sherlock Holmes in classic literature. Obviously, this was not easy to do. But once I got past my preconceptions of Holmes in the literary sense, I was able to look at Johnny Lee Miller's portrayal with fresh eyes. The result was a welcome jaunt into somewhat familiar territory.
And speaking of Miller, he's an absolute joy to watch. I've loved his work since HACKERS way back in the day. The same can be said for Lucy Liu. She is also a delight to see onscreen. Both actors accent each other well in the show, and the chemistry between them is very evident. The rest of the cast does a fine job as well.
The storylines in ELEMENTARY are fresh and intriguing, and some appear to have come straight from today's news headlines. Even so, the show is a nice mixture of intense mystery and light humor. I enjoy the "baggage" that Holmes carries because it makes him even more of a real person. Season five deepens the relationship between Holmes and Watson, but it also begs more questions that we will have to dwell upon until season six.
ELEMENTARY is a heck of a good show, I highly recommend it. Season five is available now.

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--In the first study of its kind, Natasha Leporé, PhD, and colleagues have pinpointed structural anomalies in the developing brain that may increase the risk of cognitive disabilities, such as frontal executive dysfunction (FED) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), in premature newborns. This study was published by the Public Library of Science, on July 3, in PLOS ONE.
"Dr. Leporé's innovative research is an important step toward developing non-subjective criteria for the diagnosis of ADHD, one of the most common neurobehavioral disorders of childhood. Her work also provides a potential therapeutic target for more specific pharmacological intervention to help children reach their fullest potential," said Brent Polk, MD, director of The Saban Research Institute of Children's Hospital Los Angeles.
Often regarded as the most advanced area of the brain, the frontal lobe gives humans the ability to plan, problem-solve, memorize, remain attentive and suppress socially unacceptable behaviors. In order to carry out these executive functions, extensive connections throughout the cerebral cortex must properly develop in utero. Miscommunications between the frontal lobe and other areas of the brain can be broadly categorized as FED and include cognitive and behavioral disorders such as ADHD.
ADHD is a condition characterized by extreme inattention, hyperactivity or impulsiveness, and is often diagnosed when children reach school-age. While previous studies have shown strong correlations between premature birth and behavioral problems later in life, no potential mechanism has been discovered until now.
By using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans and surface-generation technologies, researchers were able to reconstruct three-dimensional images of internal structures in the brains of preterm and healthy full-term infants. When comparing these two groups, significant structural differences were found in a centrally located area, the putamen, which is part of an intricate circuit connecting to the frontal lobe. The same variances seen in the premature newborns are known to be abnormal in older children diagnosed with ADHD. Discovering this atypical development in infants born preterm provides a structural explanation for the increased rates of FED, ADHD and other behavioral disorders seen in this population.
"The next step will be to see whether we can find a way to predict which premature children will develop ADHD based on the differences that we see in their putamens compared to babies born full term," said the study's senior author, Natasha Leporé, from The Saban Research Institute of Children's Hospital Los Angeles.
While survival rates of preterm infants have greatly improved due to advancements in neonatal care, these children are still at a high risk of exhibiting cognitive and behavioral problems once they are a few years old. The ability to identify structural signs of FED and ADHD shortly after birth will allow for early interventions, greatly increasing the child's social and learning behaviors as they age.
The study was a multi-disciplinary collaborative effort involving multiple institutions. Natasha Leporé, PhD, is Assistant Professor of Research Radiology at University of Southern California. Other contributing researchers include: Yalin Wang, MD, Jie Shi, MD, and Xing An, MD, from Arizona State University, Ashok Panigrahy, MD, and Rafael Ceschin, MD, from Children's Hospital Pittsburgh, Yi Lao, Douglas Vanderbilt, MD, and Marvin D. Nelson, MD, from Children's Hospital Los Angeles and Paul M. Thompson, MD, from University of California-Los Angeles. This work was partially funded by the NIH.

RCN learning rep Sheryle Miller attended Buckingham Palace Garden Party as part of an RCN delegation on 31 May.
NHS figures published this morning show that seven out of ten nursing vacancies remain unfilled in the North East.
The chair of the RCN Northern region board reflects on his five RCN roles, the benefits of getting active in the RCN, and the challenging times that lie ahead.
The RCN's longest-serving representative Gordon Lees chaired his last Northern region board meeting yesterday.
Director of Nursing and Patient Experience for City Hospitals Sunderland and South Tyneside NHS Foundation Trust Melanie Johnson has been elected to represent the Northern region on the RCN's newest national committee.
RCN pay champion and activist Claire Reynolds has written a poem to the prime minister on behalf of all those campaigning to #scrapthecap on nursing pay. "I wrote it late last night after I got home from work," she said. "I thought of all the hardship we all suffer: the lack of money and the inadequate staffing levels, and it just flowed from there."
The RCN Northern region has delivered two masterclasses on conducting professional investigations, focusing on how investigating officers can conduct effective investigations completed as quickly as possible to the highest standards.
The president of RCN County Durham and Darlington branch, Cate Woolley-Brown, has been appointed as her trust's Freedom to Speak Up Guardian. Freedom to Speak Up Guardians are a new role that has been introduced nationally.
North Cumbria University Hospitals NHS Trust has come out of special measures after four years, following a report by the CQC on its visit last December. For the first time, the trust has been rated as 'good' overall for providing 'effective' services.
With 24,000 nursing vacancies across the country, record numbers of patients requiring care and additional financial pressure of the NHS, our members are increasingly concerned about the impact that low staffing levels and high demand are having on patient care and safety. In this issue we take you through how to raise any concerns you may have safely. We also report on the RCN lobby of MPs prior to a parliamentary debate on nursing pay, and Northern members representing the region at the recent 'It's our NHS' march in London.

I want my students to be successful, and that's why I equip them with Shmoop.
Mountain View, California (PRWEB) September 27, 2016
After the College Board redesigned the SAT® exam last year, concerns came rushing in. Particularly about the math section of the exam, which critics said put English Language Learners and other students at a disadvantage because of the wordiness of the real-world word problems. A test that, according to the College Board, was supposed to promote "equity and opportunity," ended up creating an even larger divide.
That's where Shmoop comes in. Shmoop (http://www.shmoop.com), a digital publisher known for its award-winning test prep and certified online courses, is all about creating materials that are accessible to all students. And their SAT Exam Prep is no exception. Shmoop's student-speak—not to mention their affordable prices—allow everyone to get the resources they need to succeed in standardized testing.
Students start by taking a diagnostic exam, which will help them determine what they know and what they're just pretending to know. Next, they can brush up with comprehensive review for the reading, writing and language, math, and essay sections of the exam. Once they feel ready, it's off to hundreds of drill questions, with engaging answer explanations and video playlists to be sure they're picking up what Shmoop is putting down. Finally, there are four full-length practice exams that mimic the actual test; that way students can better pace themselves on the big day. With thousands of flashcards and access to infinite math drills in the form of Math Shack, there's nothing Shmoop doesn't offer.
"My students want to prove to themselves and to others: 'This is who I am and this is how good I can be.' I want my students to be successful, and that's why I equip them with Shmoop," says Lawrence Smith, a veteran teacher who serves as an associate for the Hillsborough Community College Reach-Out Program in Florida and used Shmoop's SAT prep with his students. "This program really works."

Thiruvaaroor Therae - Anuradha Sriram, Udit Narayan
As in every film of Srikanth Deva and Perarasu, this is a massy folk. Udit narayan with the male vocals and Perarasu wid his stupid lyrics make this song a really unbearable one. This is old wine in a old bottle ! Anuradha Sriram is adequate and Udit has managed to improve his diction. Perarasu's double meaning lyrics spoil the song to the maximum possible extent. The tunes all through the song have an already heard feel as is the case in every Srikanth Deva song. The tabla beats are the same ones as in the "Vadumaanga" song. Pretty lifeless composition to which Bharath's dance can probably add some energy. How nice it wud be if Srikanth Deva could give a M Kumaran S/0 Mahalakshmi again instead of these repetitive koothus.
Rating: 0.5/5
Yaarum Ennidam - Sadhana Sargam, Karthik
"Yaarum Ennidam sollatha vaartha" begins the female singer.At the end of the song, all that came into my mind was "Yaarum unnidam sollatha vaarthaya sollida poren da naaye !"What a novel and brilliant chorus - KG Rhymes style - "I love you I love you I love you da".Kaa thu ! Srikanth Deva tries out symphony type high pitched interludes and it seriously aint working for him. "Johny Johny yes papa Eating sugar no papa " [:((] [:((] [:((] [:((] [:((] [:((] [:((] .. Enna koduma sir idhu .. Ore Rhymes a irukku ! .. But this is the best song of the album which means you can easily judge the rest of the album !
Rating: 1/5
Ellam Valla Iraiva-Tippu
Mass opening song with typical heavy beats and equally inane lyrics from Perarasu. Same old thara thappata beats from Srikanth Deva - How long is he going to do the same nonsense ???? In the middle comes the same beat he used in "Vaada Vaada Thozha" which itself was lifted from some other old song ! "Kaavadi Aatam .. Kaavadi Aatam " sounds more like "Comedy Aatam". [:p] Tippu as usual is refreshing but you require something more than energy to life this song out of the deep pit that it is inside ! The chorus is horrendous and the remix that Srikanth Deva has attempted has failed miserably . Wat on earth was he thinking ???? [:o][:o] Even I can mix songs that way using Windows Movie Maker ! "Palani vanthu aaduraane Comedy Aatam" will actually be better. The whistle thing that Srikanth Deva has used was the same that Vidyasagar used in "Appadi Podu" Still I wonder how on earth did Srikanth Deva thought he could remix songs of different beats in one song ! The "Muruga" that came towards the end sounded like uaaaa (vomiting) I am wondering why on earth did Bharath accepted this project !! .. He's gonna be heavily criticised for this no doubt.Perarasu aint a big director - All the idiot did is to give two superhits with the help of Vijay's screen presence followed by continuous "Fuck-all" movies ! This one is going to be one more in the latter list !

Innoru Murai - Naveen, Vasundhra Das
One of the worst compostions of late which can compete with "Naaka Mooka" from "Kaathalil Vizhunthen" .The keyboard thing right at the start was used already by Sabesh Murali in 23rd Pulikesi. This one sounds so similar to the song from Sivakaasi - "Ithu enna ithu enna" I guess this is the song where Bharath is gonna parade around in "Ramarajan"-ish costumes.Another "old wine in old bottle" song from Srikanth Deva. The interlude is so nauseating -"Mr.Romeo" .. Aaaargh ! "Billa Ranga Baasha" nnu Sivaji oda lines a use panna padam Sivaji alavukku odum nnu nenaichitaan pola ! Perarasu - Plz stop the nonsense and eff off frm the industry
Rating: (-1)/5
Locku Locku - Suchitra, Perarasu
If direction and writing lyrics wasn't enough, Perarasu has now ventured into singing as well. I guess he is trying to be TR's succesor.( One more Simbu varama iruntha seri !) His voice is highly nauseating. Suchitra is as worse as him. Cudn't get myself to listen to the song fully ! I guess we need to ban this guy permanently frm Kollywood. Hasn't the guy got a conscience ?? .. Another song that has been rehashed frm earlier hit songs. Cant Srikanth Deva think on his own ?!?!? The tune in the middle is the same that was earlier used in the beginning of "Nee Entha Ooru" by Dhina. "Lokku Lokku Locallu .. Enna ethukodi ethukodi Angelu" .. Intha maari paadaa entha ponnavathu ethupaala da ?? [:o]
Rating: (-2)/5
Thaayai Polathaan-Mukesh
*Phew* "Where was the sentiment song ?!" - I was wondering and lo it started. Mother sentiment from Perarasu this time. You can guess the song genres so easily in a Perarasu film's album. Similar to the one in Thirupaaachi and Sivakaasi . I guess it will keep playing in the background in the Sentiment mokkai scenes which form an integral part of Perarasu's films. Nothing to write about this song.
Rating: 0/5
Overall : Just waiting for the thing that's happening in the picture above to happen to Perarasu in real life . I will distribute sweets to everyone then.One of the worst albums I've ever listened too ! I guess this will be the end of Perarasu from Kollywood ! *Yippppeeee !!*
Verdict : If you can avoid it,plz do so and send me a Cheque for Rs.100/- or more for saving you a trip to the doctor !

the eyes have it
I have watched several "interviews" - with some having the person looking directly into the camera, some with the person looking just off the camera (like at the camera man who may be just standing off to the right or left - and some with the person definitely looking at someone else - like an interviewer who is many feet away.
My general feeling is that I like either direct or just off the camera - but I am wondering if there are any kinda "rules" or best approaches to this.
I know many would say "well - what effect are you looking for ?" - but I am not sure I am looking for an effect - I am looking for some advice on what may be most effective. I generally came away from the ones where the view definitely not towards the camera but off the camera more than several feet - that I didn't like it - but am I missing something ?
Dave Messinger
http://vfwTech.com http://VideoByDave
And on YOU TUBE - VideoByDave
Have them look into the camera when directly addressing the bride and groom for later viewing, like if it is a good-luck wish. If you're interviewing them at length to get them to tell a longer anecdote, eyeline off to the side usually works better, is more formal and impersonal, detached. More like a documentary style. But no law says you can't mix and match.
The other thing to do is change the width of the shot between answers, while you're asking the questions, so that when you cut out the questions, the answers, edited together, flow naturally. What makes this work is asking questions that cannot be answered in a "yes or no" manner, but HAVE to be "essay answers", that "put the question back into the answer". If they still give you monosyllabic answers, ask follow-ups like "why", "How is that?", "What's the reason for that?""What happened that made you decide that?" "How does a person get to do what you do?". Leading questions.
Example question: "What's your favorite ice cream?"
Wrong way answer: "Rocky Road"
Right way answer: "My favorite ice cream is Rocky Road, because, it has nuts, chocolate, marshmallow, all these different textures that work together...etc etc etc."
See, you can EDIT something nice out of sentences like that. Try editing monosyllable answers together, without the question to explain what you're asking them... it's horrible.
I knew a news cameraman who stuck a little fuzzy mini-figure on top of his viewfinder: he found that it always made people look towards the lens but not quite into it, and they tended to look into his lens more than any guy on either side of him, because that incongruous little troll doll or whatever it was was an eye magnet. It worked especially well when interviewing children.

The Books of ACTS
Part 6A: Acts 19:13-20:35
(Discs 56-61)
Acts 19:13 says, "itinerant Jewish exorcists took it upon themselves to call the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits…" However, these exorcists were overpowered by the evil spirits. The authority of the name of the Lord Jesus has been granted only to Believers (Mark 16:17), and achieves results when employed in faith by the power of the Holy Spirit.
In Part 6A of this twelve-part series, Dr. Price explores the operation of demonic forces.
Believers are not to be in fear of evil spirits.
Evil spirits are under the direction of Satan and are attempting to short-circuit the plan and purpose of God.

Staff at Onecom have stepped up to a new challenge as the company partners with Fitbit to improve staff wellbeing.
Employees at the business communication specialist's Hampshire headquarters and its offices around the UK are taking part in a company-wide fitness challenge using wrist-worn Fitbit step counters to monitor their daily activity levels.
Onecom staff can purchase Fitbit devices at discounted rates thanks to a corporate arrangement with Fitbit.
Onecom is bringing the cost of the devices down further by contributing 50% of the discounted price to every employee who wants one. So far, more than 150 team members have signed up to the scheme, which was officially launched at Onecom House in Whiteley, Hampshire, on Friday (October 6th).
People across the business will now compete in a three-week 'Workplace Race' which will see teams compete to be the most active by racking up the largest number of steps.
The team with the largest collective step count on October 27th will be named champions, with prizes on offer for the five individuals across Onecom with the highest number of steps counted.
Aaron Brown, Chief Operating Officer at Onecom, said: "We have recently launched a range of benefits for staff in a scheme we're calling Employee Plus, and a focus on wellbeing is a big part of that commitment.
"We've already seen a huge buzz across the business, along with some good-natured competitiveness, as we launch into our first Fitbit challenge."

(PRWEB) March 24, 2016
Dick Amadon, a devoted writer and author, has completed his newest book "My Piseco My Life": a gripping and potent work that examines the changes over time to the author's home town.
Published by New York City-based Page Publishing, Dick Amadon's intriguing work details how modern society has effected belief and comfort.
How much life has changed the place that is referred to as "My Piseco". The place he knew as a kid through those years growing up that we all go through, where life just happened to begin in a small upstate New York town in the least populated county of Hamilton in the heart of the Adirondacks. On that dead end road where so many other kids did the same. Then to be led away from "My Piseco" as an adult and responsibilities that took him to various construction projects that were farther and farther away from this great place, but finally returning and then getting involved with various groups in the town and yes, even the town politics.
Time flies by and the town goes through the motions of being "My Piseco," but the change has happened to this hometown like so many others throughout the Adirondacks and this great nation. Gone was the self-reliant feeling of those days from the 1940s through the 1960s that saw our towns and communities grow up.
Readers who wish to experience this profound work can purchase "My Piseco My Life" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon, Google Play or Barnes and Noble.

The UW Mobile Clinics & Health Care in Uganda program is offered by the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences (CALS) in partnership with IAP.
Mobile health clinics are used widely in both the developing world and in underserved portions of more affluent countries. Some clinics provide "just" primary medical care (some combination of treatment of basic health problems and preventive care such as prenatal checkups), while others provide both primary care and health education (for example: sessions with information about water treatment for disease prevention). Though more evaluation remains to be done, the potential for mobile clinics to serve a basic role in public health by removing barriers to access ofmedical care is obvious.
The Uganda Mobile Clinic Program focuses on creating and implementing mobile clinics in the Lweza and Mukono communities and the surrounding Mukono District of Uganda. In partnership with the municipal health office and with school and community leaders, participants on this program work to inform local students and parents about where clinics will be held and what services they can and cannot provide. You will also engage in service-learning activities that further connect you with the community, including health education sessions and a garden project that will help teach connections between agricultural production, diet and well-being.
The program is made possible by energetic participation and support from many community and school groups including the Lweza community and Lweza Primary School, local and regional health authorities including Mukono HC4 and the Mukono District Health Office, the in-country service provider Uganda Trails and Tours, and a UW-Madiosn student organization called the Village Health Project.
Department of Biochemistry article: Uganda Program Inspires Students to Pursue Health and Service Careers
• Compare and contrast US and Ugandan health care systems• Describe three factors that impact Ugandans' ability to address their health situations• Explain the importance of mobile clinics in helping people in rural Uganda to address their health concerns• List and describe three of the most common health concerns identified by students and community members• Describe the interactions and outcomes of health care providers in Uganda with their patients• Articulate the United State's role in Uganda, with special attention to efforts addressing health issues
This program takes place in the Lweza/Mukono area in the Mukono District of Uganda.
First, make sure you have reviewed the information for Prospective Students on the IAP web site.
There is also specific Academic Planning information that you should review.
Next login to the IAP Online Application.
The following supplemental application materials are also required as part of the application to this program and will become available to you through the on-line application:
Spend two weeks in Uganda talking with patients in the company of Ugandan health care professionals. While you will not diagnose or treat, you may work with nurses and/or other health staff to identify health issues confronting patients and observe the health care professionals' response to those conditions.
Providers working in the mobile clinic will either use supplies from the clinic to provide treatment or refer patients to hospitals in Uganda's multi-tiered system. You will have extensive opportunities to talk with health care providers about their jobs, about the structure of the Ugandan healthcare system, and about the needs of their patients. While program participants do learn about how to provide primary care in a resource-poor setting, program alums say that the opportunities provided to simply sit and talk with Ugandans (especially children and young adults) have been influential in highlighting the role of nutrition, education, employment, and other non-medical factors in supporting the health of any population.
All participants will be enrolled in two credits of Nutritional Sciences 421. This program is approved as a field experience for the Global Health Certificate.
Students will complete preparatory readings, keep a journal, and compose a final paper.

In order to achieve your goals, you have to make clear cut goals. Ambiguous goals are the worst because you never truly know when you have achieved them. What's even worse is starting a challenge and not knowing what you want after it!
When setting fitness goals it is important to figure out what exactly what you want! How much weight you want to lose or muscle mass you want to gain, factors like that will impact your goals.
Before you start setting goals, it is important to figure out where you are now! In terms of fitness:
- Analyse your current eating and sleeping patterns – Find out when you eat, what you tend to eat, how you feel when you eat in order to determine your relationship with food and to figure out exactly where you need to make changes.
- Your weight and measurements
- Caloric Intake – Find out your maintenance level to determine what you need to maintain, lose, or gain weight. ACalorieCounter helps with this.
- Body Fat % – This website helps but be wary it is not the best determine body fat %, the website can only make predictions based on equations. The Navy uses it though so I think it's a good base
So you've figured out where you are. but what are your Next Steps?
The key to making good goals it to make them S. M.A.R.T
|Photo via http://blog.northernhealth.ca/active-living/active-living-every-day-your-way/
Start writing down your goals and then break them down into mini goals to develop an action plan!
A goal without action is useless. Your goals and actions should be in line with the rewards you want to receive check out this website by Bruce Woodcock from Kent University on developing an action plan! Here is the template Bruce Woodcock created:
Now write your own action plan ……
List the steps you need to take. Be detailed and specific (not ''I'll contact some employers'', but ''Find email addresses of 5 local employers who have marketing departments & contact them"
Date I expect to complete this step by
My reward for completing this step will be
|I will tell my plan to:
|I will start my action plan on (date):
|Step 1
|Step 2
|Step 3
|Step 4
|Step 5
What problems am I likely to face? What will I do to overcome these?

|PIGGLY WIGGLY KICKS BACK AND RELAXES WHILE ENJOYING A MIDNIGHT SNACK. Via eyedropper.
I usually reserve "Other People's Whorrors" for celebrities and other galloping disasters, but this week I've been absurdly busy running back and forth between hospitals with loved ones (everyone's fine, but feel free to send me a comforting gift anyway) so basically I'm the Florence Nightingale of the new millennium. Except that I drink and wear slutty clothing. But other than that, yeah. Pretty much a martyr.
who has no business looking
this flat-out gorgeous after
a night of zero sleep. WTF?
That's just showing off!
Because although the more observant of you will notice that Piggly has finally been freed of the feeding tube, she still won't take the bottle and her cup skills are basically at what I'd call Drunken Tavern Patron level. Which means either she doesn't get enough liquids or she gets them hand-fed to her by eyedropper. One millilitre at a time. You can imagine how long that takes, and if you can't, I'll tell you: hours. And hours. And hours. Every day. And in the middle of the night. And yet it is all done with such love and tenderness, such good-natured affection, I sometimes look at my daughter and think: "How the fuck did you come out of me?" In fact, I may well have to hand my martyr shirt over to her. Goddamit. And I'd just paid a fortune to have it altered to expose my nipples. LIFE SUCKS!
In other news, let's see what the celebritits are up to these days. Starting with Jessica Simpson's batshit-crazy husband, whatever his name is:
Memo to self: NEVER LET JESSICA SIMPSON'S HUSBAND BABYSIT PIGGLY! TMZ
Lenny Kravitz and Lisa Bonet's daughter proves sometimes celebrities' kids win the gene lottery. And sometimes they look like Rumer Willis. TOOFAB
And speaking of Rumer Willis ... wait, what? Is there such a thing as an entire head transplant? I'm going to say 'yes.' FISHWRAPPER
That whole boring 'Emma Watson nude photo threat' was a boring marketing hoax. TheSUPERFICIAL

Do you have a version of Freedome for Mac's?
You're searching online for a baby gift for a friend's newborn, and then for a while you're followed by diaper ads on practically every site you visit. Ever notice something like that happening to you?
Yes, the web can be an eerie place. Intelligence agencies and criminals aren't the only people who may be tracking your online behavior – there's a lot more to your browsing session than meets the eye.
Take, for example, this F-Secure Labs study that found that of the 100 most popular URLs in the world, only 15 percent are actually accessed by real people. The other 85 percent are third-party sites that are accessed behind the scenes of your browsing session, by the sites you visit. And over half of these third-party sites are tracking-related. They are helping build up an online profile of you and your browsing habits.
Why? So marketers can better target you with ads that meet your interests and preferences – or at least try to, in the case of the diaper ads.
How does it work? When you visit a site with ads, you'll be tracked by the marketing company behind the ads on that site. And one marketing company may be working with a huge network of other websites. So whenever you visit another site that also has a relationship with that marketer, the marketer captures more and more data about you and your online behavior. All this data goes into an extensive profile that is being built up about you.
If that sounds a little creepy, rest assured that you can regain control of your digital privacy. There's an easy way to block advertisers from tracking you everywhere you go. Last year we launched F-Secure Freedome to stop tracking on your mobile device (to date, Freedome has already blocked over 900 million tracking attempts globally). And now there's good news – today we're unveiling Freedome for your Windows PC!
Freedome for Windows has the same privacy features as the mobile versions, protecting you from trackers and hackers. It's got the same VPN technology to protect your browsing session from snoops while using public Wi-Fi. In addition, it also includes a new Private Search feature that offers tools so you can get your search engine results without the tracking.
Since the Snowden revelations, we as consumers have become more and more aware that we may be revealing the most intimate details of our lives through our connected devices. According to a recent study by the Pew Research Center Internet Project, 91% of adults in the survey agree that consumers have lost control over how personal information is collected and used by companies.
If you're concerned too, download a free 14-day trial of Freedome for your Windows PC. And let us know what you think!

Do you have a version of Freedome for Mac's?
Damn right about those constant ads, I get that too. Total invasion of privacy, need to adapt the law to start tackling this kinda inconvenience and abuse to consumers. Out of order that you've already made a company profit by buying from it and that company thanks you by harassing you and violating your rights. The public deserves better than that, offending companies need to be brought to justice over it and that way they'll stop doing it or face tougher action next time. Shocking how anti-social and disrespectful so many websites are now, and unless serious legal action is taken things will only get worse and more dangerous for the average person. I realize it would be far more difficult than it sounds but websites have to be monitored more, at least if a site has been complained about for either tracking, scamming or worst hacking. Suspicious sites or sites facing accusations should be investigated but of course there have to be very definite, much tougher laws in place first clearly banning any manner of anti-social, abusive or malicious behaviour. Only if such sites are then prosecuted to the full extent of the law will there ever be any kind of peace of mind brought back to using the internet, instead of the situation growing more uncivilized and chaotic to the point it simply can't be trusted anymore.
how is it, if my pc is protected with freedom vpn,do I still need some firewall/antivirus protection along with it?
Helsinki will play host to the first summit between Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump, two…

Letting your light shine
Letting your light shine
When each of our children attended preschool, it seems they all learned the song, "This Little Light of Mine." The first verse repeats the refrain, "this little light of mine, I'm going to let it shine," three times. This is exactly what Christ asks each of us to do in Matthew 5:16 when he says "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works." Christ is the source of the greatest light and we are expected to reflect his light in our words, our appearance and in our actions. When we share his light through us in these ways we can lead others to him.
Letting your light shine through your words
Buddha said, "Whatever words we utter should be chosen with care, for people will hear them and be influenced by them for good or ill." (Cameron Wright, The Rent Collector)
Proverbs 15 provides great advice on how the words you speak can be used for good or evil: "A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger. The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright: but the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness." (Proverbs 15:1-2)
As a follower of Christ, your words should not be vile, vulgar, deceitful or hurtful. When you speak you should speak as he would. You should want others to see him in the words you speak. Your words will share your light.
Letting your light shine through your appearance
Recently, a YouTube video by Jessica Rey speaking on the evolution of swimwear went viral. In it, she shared a study conducted at Princeton University which used brain scans to see how men reacted to scantily clad women. In most cases, men viewed the women as objects.
How you dress reflects how you are perceived. George Whitefield said, "The great and important duty which is incumbent in Christians is to guard against all appearance of evil."
Dressing neatly, cleanly and modestly sends the message that you respect yourself as a child of God. Allison Stevens wrote the following about dressing modestly: "When we dress modestly, we are saying that we possess inner qualities for which we should gain appropriate attention and value from others."
Letting your light shine through your actions
John Locke said, "I have always thought the actions of men the best interpreters of their thoughts." You can claim to be a true follower of Christ, but if you do not demonstrate it through your deeds, your actions and your behavior, no one will believe you.
In Matthew 25, the Savior shares the parable of the sheep and goats. The sheep, he says, will inherit his kingdom because they served him by serving others: "Verily, I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me." (Matthew 25:40) In other words, it is how you behave toward others and provide needs when they are seen that best demonstrate your love of the Savior. Your actions will share your light.
When you use language which is uplifting, when you dress showing respect for your body and others and when you demonstrate through your actions that you are a follower of Christ, you show that, "Ye are a light of the world." (Matthew 5:14) The world has enough darkness and others need to see the light. Do not hide your light. Put it "on a candlestick" so it can give light to all around you. (Matthew 5:15)

The Dixie Chopper mower (XCaliber model) was compared to the other top zero turn riders in the following categories...
Cut: Rating A-
The Dixie Chopper gives a great cut on all of their models. They have a high blade tip speed (highest legally allowed). The deck is well thought out and durable. Overall a good cutting machine.
Durability: Rating B+
A basic tough machine. Available with an oil cooler. Very heavy duty machine--built to last.
Handling and Balance: Rating B
On flat ground, this mower really rocks. However, its weakness lies in hills. This machine is really built for flat areas, so don't buy it if your turf is hilly.
Available Accessories: Rating A
The company is very innovative. They have everything available from double blade kits to mulching kits to propane powered mowers. They are kind of the Orange County Choppers of the lawn industry.
Maintenance and Ingenuity: Rating B
They would have received a higher grade than a B if there was better hillside stability. I don't understand why they don't address this issue unless their biggest audience just mows flat terrain.
Here are the Dixie Chopper mowers that are currently listed for sale on Ebay. I've found some great deals there. And I've sold a ton of old equipment through it.
If you aren't already a member of eBay, you need to go to the registration page before you can bid, buy, or sell anything.

North Korea brands Trump a 'warmonger' as his Asia tour moves to Hanoi
HANOI: North Korea lashed out Saturday at Donald Trump's "warmonger's" tour of Asia because the US president landed in Hanoi on the most recent leg of a five-nation regional go to to drum up assist in opposition to Pyongyang`s nuclear weapons build-up.
The outburst got here as Trump nears the tail finish of his sweep by way of Japan, South Korea, China, Vietnam and the Philippines that has seen him rail in opposition to the North`s nuclear ambitions and ship his "America First" imaginative and prescient of world commerce.
Trump has urged the area to take a united entrance in opposition to the risk posed by remoted North Korea, which has sparked world alarm with its nuclear and missile exams in current months.
On Friday he warned world leaders gathered within the Vietnamese resort metropolis of Danang that the Asia-Pacific area "should not be held hostage to a dictator`s twisted fantasies".
Pyongyang issued its personal retort Saturday branding Trump`s Asia tour a "warmonger`s go to for confrontation to rid the DPRK of its self-defensive nuclear deterrence", within the first feedback on the journey by a North Korean official.
It mentioned Trump`s warnings "can by no means frighten us or put a cease to our advance", in accordance with the state-run KCNA information company, quoting a Pyongyang overseas ministry spokesman.
Tensions over the North`s weapons programme have surged in current months, as Pyongyang carried out a sixth nuclear check — by far its largest thus far — and check fired dozens of missiles, some able to reaching the US mainland.
In a speech to the South Korean parliament on Wednesday, Trump warned Pyongyang to not underestimate america, whereas providing chief Kim Jong-Un a greater future if he provides up his nuclear ambitions.
Trump has additionally prodded Chinese language President Xi Jinping to pile strain on North Korea.
"I`d prefer to have him ratchet it up, and I feel he`s doing that," Trump advised reporters aboard Air Pressure One en path to Hanoi Saturday following a regional commerce assembly within the coastal metropolis of Danang.
Although China has backed UN sanctions, Washington wish to see Beijing clamp down on unauthorised commerce alongside the North Korean border.Trump will flip his consideration to Vietnam for an in a single day cease within the capital of a communist nation as soon as thought-about a bitter enemy.
Vietnam has eagerly courted commerce and funding with the US since Trump`s election, extra so after he yanked the US from a key Pacific area commerce pact, taking with him low tariff entry to the world`s largest market.
The Trump administration has singled out Vietnam as one among many international locations that has a yawning commerce deficit with the US.
Former billionaire businessman Trump advised a gathering of regional CEOs Friday he's open to doing enterprise with Asia — however would now not tolerate sweeping commerce offers he brandished as unfair and dangerous to American jobs.
Regardless of his robust discuss on commerce, he boasted about his cosy relationship with regional leaders.
"China likes me. And I get together with them, I get together with others too," he advised reporters after assembly with 20 fellow heads of state at a beachside retreat within the coastal metropolis of Danang.
"I've an ideal relationship with Justin Trudeau, who I simply left. I`ll be sincere with you, I feel I've an ideal relationship with each single one among them. Each particular person in that room immediately," he mentioned.
He additionally mentioned he had a "excellent feeling… a great relationship" with Russia`s Vladimir Putin.
Trump will attend a state banquet on Saturday evening forward of a welcoming and deal signing ceremony in Hanoi on Sunday with Vietnam`s prime management.
His subsequent cease is the Philippines for a two-day go to that can embrace an ASEAN summit of Southeast Asian leaders, capping off the 11 day go to to Asia.
There he'll maintain talks with President Rodrigo Duterte, like Trump a famously outspoken world chief.

Animal behaviour specialist, Dr Sue McDonnell, from the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine, will be speaking at the Equine Veterinarians Australia annual conference this week on ways for veterinarians to interpret behavioural changes in horses and which ones might have physical causes.
Dr McDonnell says that behavioral changes without obvious physical causes can be very challenging to diagnose by simple clinical examination alone.
The behavioural signs may be subtle or disappear in the face of a threat, such as an examination by a vet.
Behavioural changes may also be a sign of underlying pain. A horse in pain could also stop displaying a problem behaviour when distracted by food or social situations.
"A 24-hour continuous videotape of the horse can help identify possible physical or psychological causes. When horses are undisturbed in a quiet, familiar environment, they are more likely to show signs of discomfort.
"Repeated subtle signs, such as tail movements, head-shaking and changes in breathing are very helpful in recognising abnormal behaviours, which may indicate underlying pain," she said.
Dr McDonnell will also be giving conference presentations on normal behaviour and socialisation of horses, and stallion, mare and foal behaviour. Dr McDonnell brings her perspective from years of scientific study and observation of wild horse herd behaviour and interactions. She has created a horse psychology model for use in the diagnosis and management of horses.
The conference, being run by Equine Veterinarians Australia, a special interest group of the Australian Veterinary Association, is being held at the Brisbane Convention Centre, Queensland, 8-13 July.
The Australian Veterinary Association (AVA) is the national professional association of veterinary surgeons in Australia. Founded in 1921, the AVA today represents 5000 members working in all areas of animal science, health and welfare.

ScrollingStackViewController is a convenient replacement for the
UITableViewController more suitable in situations when you're building a scrolling controller with a limited number or dynamic and rich "cells".
UITableViewController is great for situations when we want to display an arbitrary (possibly large) number of relatively simple cells. Sometimes however you just want to partition your view controller into vertically laid out segments. The segments are probably highly heterogenous, complex, their number is well defined, but you still want to be able to show and hide them depending on the situation. You can achieve that with a
UITableViewController, but it gets a litte awkward:
- The Data Source pattern is an overkill here. You might as well just add your segments directly and hide/show them without having to go through
cellForRow:at:, table view updates, etc. Juggling indexes when you want to show and hide different cells tends to be bug and crash prone and sometimes difficult to animate nicely. You probably don't care for cell reuse in this case, so the advantages of delegation are missing here.
- It's difficult to partition the code well.
UITableViewCellbelongs in the View layer, so you either have to keep the Controller parts in your containing view controller in which case you haven't partioned the Controller layer, or you have to pervert
UITableViewCelland stick Controller code there. In either case–not a win.
The solution to the above that
ScrollingStackViewController provides is to use child view controllers that can honestly keep their own Controller code while using
UIStackView to deal with the layout and
UIScrollView for scrolling. It's a simple class that provides all of the scaffolding and aims to deal with all of the UIKit quirks that it likes to throw at you.
We invite you to check the Order Details page in the Just Eat UK app where each segment is a child view controller, making the such page a perfect use case for using
The containing view controller only needs to know how to instantiate, initialise, and add the child controllers.
Inherit from
ScrollingStackViewController. Instantiate and add your child view controllers. Make sure your child view controllers have constraints to self-size vertically.
class ViewController: ScrollingStackViewController {
var viewController1: UIViewController!
var viewController2: UIViewController!
override func viewDidLoad() {
let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
viewController1 = storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "ChildController1") as! ChildController1
viewController2 = storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "ChildController2") as! ChildController2
add(viewController: viewController1)
add(viewController: viewController2)
Insert a child view controller at position.
insert(viewController: viewController3, at: .index(1))
Insert a child view controller with padding (child view is added to a container view). NB: When a child view is added to a padding container view, the show/hide functions should be used.
insert(viewController: viewController4,
edgeInsets: UIEdgeInsets(top: 0, left: 8, bottom: 0, right: 8),
at: .after(viewController3))
Remove a child view controller. NB: Might be easier to just add all VCs you were planning to use and then just show and hide them as needed. See below.
remove(viewController: viewController3)
Show and hide the view controllers using
show(viewController:) and
hide(viewController:). The transition animates.
show(viewController: viewController1)
The default is a spring animation with 0.5 duration and 1 damping. You can override the default animation closure.
animate = { animations, completion in
UIView.animate(withDuration: 1, animations: animations, completion: completion)
Add spacing.
spacingColor = UIColor.lightGray
stackView.spacing = 0.5
Add border.
borderColor = UIColor.darkGray
borderWidth = 1
Programatically scroll to child view controller.
scrollTo(viewController: viewController2, action: { print("Done scrolling!") })
Override scroll animation.
scrollAnimate = { animations, completion in
UIView.animate(withDuration: 1, animations: animations, completion: completion)
You still have access to the stack view, scroll view, and the background view that back the view controller if you need to do something that's not covered quickly.
scrollView.alwaysBounceVertical = false
stackView.spacing = 1
stackViewBackgroundView.alpha = 0
ScrollingStackViewController requires iOS 9 or higher. Swift 4, XCode 9 supported.

This month IDW continues their awesome Star Trek series The City on the Edge of Forever #4 based on Harlan Ellison's award winning teleplay. The cover art by Juan Ortiz features Captain Kirk and Sister Edith Keeler among the New York skyline, with the ever present Mr. Spock in the background. This cover appropriate foreshadows that Spock must interfere in the love blossoming between Kirk and Keeler in order to save their future.
The story begins with the tender courtship of Captain Kirk and Sister Edith Keeler; played by William Shatner and Joan Collins on Star Trek The Original Series (TOS) Season 1 Episode 28, first aired in April 1967, per IMDB). At first Captain Kirk denies his growing affection for Keeler citing the need to stay close to her to protect her from crewman Beckwith. The ever observant Mr. Spock sees his Captains true feelings for Keeler and warns him against the relationship; "she has to die Captain". Kirk cannot contemplate Edith's death and tries to keep her safe while searching for Bekwith. While Kirk fights against destiny, it allows Beckwith the advantage in a fight with Spock and he almost succeeds in killing him. Now Kirk must decide if he will allow destiny to take the woman he loves away from him to save his beloved Enterprise.
This is a great comic series to read if you love Star Trek TOS, just be sure to pick up The City On the Edge of Forever #1 thru #3 in the series so you have the full story.

As more companies continue to deploy cloud computing and virtualization services to improve IT efficiency and control costs, they need to update their backup and disaster recovery strategies to ensure their information is protected, a backup service provider recently stated.
Many businesses have found they can utilize cloud computing and virtualization solutions to drive down their IT expenditures. However, in a recent study of 3,000 IT practitioners conducted by the Ponemon Institute, 73 percent of small- and medium-sized businesses indicated the technologies have changed their backup and disaster recovery strategies.
According to the report, the next phase of virtualization adoption must address disaster recovery and backup in virtual environments. To achieve this, the service provider recommends companies approach their virtual infrastructure strategies with the same urgency as they do their physical servers.
The need for disaster recovery and backup solutions is apparent, as the adoption of virtualization increases. According to the same study, SMB virtual server deployments will increase to 33 percent in 2011, up from 22 percent in 2010.
